I forgot I had my spuds with the salad, Borlotti were not allowed to keep sheep, but I keep mine at the bottom of my lottie in front of the compost heap. I just keep telling the other lottie holders its a big white rug covering the compost heap, you know what these oldies are like they can't see more than ten feet in front of them.    ;)     :o       :-X        ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Watch out, my son is 40 + and I can still remember chasing him and trying to slap his legs when he was in short trousers, so just you watch it mate.  Trouble is I never caught him, especially when he pinched my bike.  ;D ;D
